Dark Chains: Bound by Fate & Passion chapter 40
Lisa's POVThe words hung in the air. Nobody spoke. Nobody even breathed.For several long seconds, the council chamber remained completely silent as every pair of eyes fixed themselves on me.Then one of the elders burst out laughing."This must be a joke."A few others joined him. The laughter echoed around the room. "White wolves are extinct.""The Wildwood Pack no longer exists.""The Redmoon Pack wiped them out generations ago.""The girl is lying."I clenched my fists beneath the table.Before I could defend myself, the Priestess spoke. "No."The laughter stopped immediately. The room respected her too much to ignore her words.The Priestess slowly rose from her seat. "She is not lying."Several elders frowned. Rasha stared at me. "Then she's telling the truth?"The Priestess nodded. "Yes."A strange unease settled over the room.One by one, the elders stopped smiling.Rasha turned toward me again. "How?" Her voice sounded almost disbelieving. "How is that possible?"I swallowed

Lisa's POVI got up from the bench immediately. My wolf's warning refused to leave my mind.I looked around the room carefully; I saw the guards outside, servants were moving around normally. Everything looked peaceful. And yet... Something felt wrong.The feeling sat heavily in my chest. Like a storm was coming.I walked toward one of the windows and looked outside. The streets were busy; People were talking, children were running, merchants were selling goods. Nothing seemed out of place.Still, my wolf remained restless. Then I heard my name. "Lisa."I turned immediately. Rasha was standing halfway down the staircase. She was watching me. "Come with me."Her tone left little room for argument. I nodded and followed her.Neither of us spoke as we climbed the stairs.The higher we went, the quieter the mansion became. Eventually we reached a large open hall.I stopped. Several people were already seated around a long wooden table.Silverfang elders. Most of them looked old:Grey hair

Lisa's POV"I don't need any evidence to know you're a werewolf, and a northern one at that. Obviously a Bloodshot," Rasha said to Derek.My heart slammed against my chest. "No, he's not," I said immediately.The words came out faster than I intended.Rasha didn't even look at me. "Keep your mouth shut and let him defend himself." Her voice was calm, but it carried authority.I swallowed and looked at Derek. He glanced at me briefly, completely unmoved by the accusation.The guards around us immediately became alert. Their hands drifted toward their weapons as they waited for Rasha's command.The atmosphere inside the room changed. Everyone was tense except Derek.He looked bored, he folded his arms and glanced around the mansion. "Silverfang security is poor," he said casually. "Much poorer than it was when your husband was alive."Rasha's eyes narrowed. The guards exchanged confused looks.Then Rasha's face darkened. "Seize him."The guards hesitated, nobody moved. I could see it in

Lisa's POVI leaned closer to Derek as the guards led us away from the hut. "Remember the plan," I whispered. "Let me do most of the talking. We don't need blood spilling."Derek glanced at me. For a second, I wasn't sure if he was even listening.Then he gave a single nod, just once.I sighed in relief. That was the closest thing to agreement I was going to get from him.The guards continued leading us through the village. Some walked ahead of us, others followed behind.I noticed something strange. Every few moments, one of them would glance at Derek.Then another, then another. They tried to be subtle about it, but I noticed. And apparently Derek noticed too.Soon they started whispering among themselves. I couldn't hear what they were saying. But whatever it was, it wasn't making me feel comfortable.Then suddenly Derek stopped walking.My heart skipped a beat. Everything froze.The guards stopped too. The whispers died immediately."This isn't what we planned," I whispered under
Dark Chains: Bound by Fate & Passion Chapter 36
Lisa’s POVThe priestess kept staring at Derek and me. Her red eyes moved slowly between us while the python around her neck hissed softly.Then she asked calmly, “Are you both couples?”My throat felt dry. Still, I nodded quickly. “Yes.”The Silverback men immediately looked at her.“So they’re the wolves?” one asked impatiently.But the priestess stayed quiet. For several long seconds, she simply watched us.Then finally she spoke. “There is a strong bond between them.”Derek stayed expressionless beside me.The priestess frowned slightly. “Too strong.”The men looked confused. “What does that mean?” one asked.She slowly tilted her head. “It feels strange. Their scents are tangled together in an unusual way.”I felt Derek’s hand lightly brush mine. Calm.The priestess narrowed her eyes again. “I cannot properly tell who carries the wolf on this boat.”The men looked alarmed immediately. “What?”The priestess sighed softly. “Either my powers are weakening…” Her red eyes settled on D

Lisa’s POVThe ferry suddenly slammed into something beneath the water that made the entire boat jerked violently.People screamed in shock as crates tipped over and water splashed against the sides. I nearly lost my balance and grabbed Derek’s arm quickly.My heart jumped into my throat. “What was that?” someone shouted.For a moment, panic spread across the ferry. Then the captain quickly raised both hands. “Calm down!” he yelled. “It’s just the checkpoint! I was carried away by the old woman's story to notice it.”Slowly, the fear settled. I looked ahead and finally saw it.A barricade stretched across the river like a bridge made of logs, chains, and thick iron spikes beneath the water. Lanterns burned along the structure while armed men stood guard above it.Even from a distance, I could tell they were werewolves. The way they stood. The way they stared.The danger around them felt different from ordinary humans.I leaned closer to Derek. “Where are we?”He kept his eyes ahead.

Lisa's POVThe name itself sent a cold shiver down my spine.“What do you mean by death valley?” I asked, my voice quieter than I intended.Derek didn’t answer immediately. He crouched low, brushing his fingers over the damp soil, then sniffed the air. His expression hard

Lisa's POVI walked down to the river and had a quick bath. The water was cold, but I didn’t mind. My body still felt weird after everything that happened. When I came back, Derek was already sitting by a fire, roasting a deer. I had no idea how he caught it so fast. My ey
Dark Chains: Bound by Fate & Passion chapter 24
Lisa's POVI had the worst dream of my life.Derek was standing in the middle of a village, blood dripping from his claws, and bodies scattered around him. Women, children, old men… all of them. Slaughtered. Their eyes were still open, staring at nothing. Their mouths frozen in screams. De

Lisa's POVThe first one lunged at me, swinging his clawed hand with enough force to snap bone. I ducked just in time, his blow cutting through air instead of skin. Before he could recover, the second one came at me from the side.But I was ready.With great force, I whipped an
